Guest John Whites Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 I have a windows server 2003 R2 domain controller that will freeze up (basically if you go to the console all you can see is a blank desktop (no icons just color, no taskbar). This always happens when backing up the system state it seems. I've tried both Symantec Backup Exec 11.0d as well as just regular windows backup and this happens on both. The Machine is running DHCP, DNS, WINS, it's a DC and does printing and KMS. The last thing in the event log is always: wins (2212) Shadow copy 1 freeze stopped. or lsass (404) Shadow copy 3 freeze stopped. Something along those lines. It seems to be somewhat intermittant as well. Some days we'll come in and it won't be hung up, the backups are all fine, but a lot of days it's in the state I described earlier. Any ideas?
Guest John Whites Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 Re: Server Freezes when backing up system state I believe I may have found the culprit to be a hardware issue. I will update this as soon as I find out. -John "John Whites" <whitesj@union.k12.mo.us> wrote in message news:OwQq684fIHA.5296@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... >I have a windows server 2003 R2 domain controller that will freeze up >(basically if you go to the console all you can see is a blank desktop (no >icons just color, no taskbar). > > This always happens when backing up the system state it seems.
